I can't get scale from the first photo. Is it the size of a silver dollar or a gas cap from you car? It could be tumbled if size does not prohibit. I have tumbled (vibratory) this kind of material (see my avatar) with lots of small material (gravel from harvester ant mounds) with some success. Toothpaste will be a long process. You might try a bit of grit in Vaseline and a dremel. Ok what do you think of using pollish media from 200 to 800 then polish media with a mecanic polish tool ? Mmm thinking about vaseline do you use these to keep the media on the pad of dremel ? Think these can work ! Maybe try it first on a small specimen ... good ideas are starting to arrive ! Thanks Peruano Fv

Order some square meters of fill stones for a construcction and guess what the order came with a surprise ! Think is green jasper but is not glassy have the color of panamenian jasper but not texture ... dont know if it is but some samples are cool ... second photod have some incrustations of basalt cuartz and jasper! Have one more on sight hope they dont used ! So I can take another rock specimen to home ( ๐ one more ? ) Chears FV.

Amethyst in Panama! Again, I didn't know that. Maybe you can get then to dig another canal and uncover more rocks for you! Fine specimens. Lol! ๐

Welcome to the forum. That carnelian is a keeper for sure! From Panama? I had no idea you had carnelian there. Very cool. Well yes ... we do ! We are a small country, also young country in terms of geological formation a little of everything ... the dificulty here is to find soecimens because we have lot's of vegetation everything is coverd in green ! to get rocks is not easy thing... , guess constructions sites and rain help a lot on findings ! Will post another ones on my collection ... other find was an amatist didnt know we haver here ...! Is not so pure like the ones from brasil but still a panamenian amatist... here are some more pic's FV
